Luxurious Celery Root and Truffle Soup

This soup features creamy celery root blended to perfection, enhanced with a drizzle of truffle oil for a gourmet touch. It takes about 45 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 large celery root, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons truffle oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and translucent (about 5 minutes).
Cook Celery Root: Add the diced celery root to the pot and stir for a few minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the celery root is tender (about 20 minutes).
Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend partially or leave some pieces intact.
Add Creaminess: Stir in the heavy cream and truffle oil. Heat gently over low heat without boiling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and drizzle with additional truffle oil if desired. Garnish with chopped chives for a fresh finish.
